Abstract: Abstract Team knowledge sharing is a fundamental way of team knowledge creation. By taking knowledge sharing behavior as the analysis unit and integrating the constructs of team psychology safety and shared knowledge, a comprehensive model of product development team knowledge creation is constructed from a behavioral perspective, which is distinct to the exiting models. The model has the fallowing points: First, the team members’ individual traits, attitude toward, subject norms concerning, and perceived control of knowledge sharing behavior have direct effect on his knowledge sharing behaviors. Second, team psychology safety has positive effect on individual members’ knowledge sharing behaviors. Three, the tacitness of knowledge has negative effect on individual’s knowledge sharing behaviors. Fourth, individual members’ knowledge sharing behaviors have positive effect on the team knowledge creation. Fifth, team shared knowledge as a moderator between individual knowledge sharing and team-level knowledge creation can facilitate the transforming of individual knowledge to team knowledge.
